Managerial Thread - 23/24 Season - Lolverpool

[JeffreyLFC]

Will Still is fired from Reims.
Ever since his rumored flirting with EPL team, his Reims team has struggled.

That's a weird one because Reims based on their roster is where they should be.

„Ich möchte ausdrücklich betonen, dass das keine Absage an den FC Bayern ist, sondern eine Entscheidung für meine Mannschaft und unsere gemeinsamen Ziele. Unsere volle Konzentration gilt der Europameisterschaft. Wir werden alles unternehmen, um dort so weit wie möglich zu kommen!“, erklärte der 65-Jährige am Donnerstag seine Entscheidung. Er sei „mit vollem Herzen österreichischer Teamchef. Diese Aufgabe macht mir unglaublich viel Freude und ich bin fest entschlossen, unseren eingeschlagenen Weg erfolgreich weiterzugehen.“

Rangnick remaining with Austria: 'This is not a rejection of Bayern'

Ralf Rangnick will remain as head coach of the Austria men’s national team and not take over at Bayern Munich. Rangnick previously said he was in talks with Bayern over succeeding Thomas Tuchel, who is to leave the Bundesliga side at the end of this season. However, the 65-year-old confirmed on...

Yeah. I actually think that a Favre or Flick could be perfectly fine for them, but I can not stop laughing at the chaos since Kahn & Brazzo got handed the reins. Eberl will get them back on track sooner or later, but for now, I will just enjoy the drama at FC Hollywood

 

[luiginb]

Hand the reins to two of the most temperamental players in your history, what could go wrong? Haha

You know, getting the unsettling feeling that this is just not a great manager crop this offseason

LFC & FCB are also jobs that come with some real downsides right now...but Favre's an excellent coach, if they end up with him they'll be just as good as if they had landed RR.

Honestly I think Barca was just like “hey Xavi, please give us one more year so we can go for Klopp in 2025.

There isn’t really an outstanding candidate with many staying in their current positions.

I'm a little surprised someone isn't looking harder at Sebastian Hoeneß.


edit: Note, I say that not wanting to see him go, knowing he did an extension. BUT, he's one of the better options out there.

 

[Jussi]

Pretty much what I've been saying:

The lack of clear alternatives, the cost of firing him and hiring a replacement is also factored into Ten Hag's favour.

 

[bluesfan94]

What a gift.

 

[Chimaera]

I mean... not wanting to buy him out and blow it up is likely the reason.

The only cheap way is for ETH to quit himself and seems he'd only do that if he felt the new leadership wouldn't give him the support the old one didn't and that scenario seems unlikely. Likewise the "blowing up the squad" isn't realistic given the lack of FFP room.

 

[hatterson]

"INEOS believe that United's executive team above Ten Hag did not provide him with the greatest chance to succeed."

OK sure that's true because the United executive structure is hilariously incompetent....but also he deserves a ton of blame for the tire fire he's put on the pitch and the awful players he's spearheaded acquiring.

Everyone is just trying to stay this summer

He's also managed to fall out with half the team.

I don't know about you, but I don't think ANY sane person is leaving a ton of money on the table. He also likely thinks he can succeed sure.

Sancho vs Antony is one that stick out for me.

I mean, are you saying Barca wouldn’t want to hire Klopp?

Either way, let’s just file this one away and see what happens

You don't get to that level of management without having an insane level of confidence in yourself, justified or not.

wake up babe new conspiracy just dropped

not a conspiracy just speculation

i think it's definitely true that barca looked at the managerial market and thought "eh we can't upgrade this year"

did see reported today that they more than anything just want a return of Luis Enrique
